Making these shops is not easy
It requires someone to make the items
Someone to gani them
Then someone to make the shop.
Instead of demanding stuff-
Make it yourself.

Definitely not a good idea. Christmas is largely a secular holiday in the mind of the general public now so its perfectly fine to celebrate it because it does not represent the religion of Christianity to nearly everybody, but Hanukkah is a very different story. It is very much a religious holiday, and its more similar to the christian holiday Epiphany in terms of religious exclusiveness. So in order to stay neutral, religious holidays and political holidays need to be avoided. And really, things like July 4th should not be celebrated on era or classic. That is the exact same concept.

It all depends on your perspective, for a long time of its history, Christmas was not a religious holiday at all. It was originally called "Saturnalia, a roman holiday celebrating the win of a war with the giving of presents. Infact it was a meld of many roman and pagan holidays, combined with the rise of the catholic church (that also renamed it to "christmas"), that turned it into what it is today. So by no means is it "supposed" to be christian, there are many ways to celebrate it, but if that's how you celebrate it its perfectly fine.

ya, i get what your saying, but "christmas" itself is the celebration of the birth of jesus, the definition of christmas is "The annual Christian festival celebrating Christ's birth, held on December 25." everything else was of different origins and kind merged into one celebration of it all and the season itself. but what i was referring to is how the need to be polictically correct in this country (usa) and the love of money and material items has basically removed the religous part of christmas from the season itself.

Green is the only important color. The more people you get to spend money, the more companies will profit. Being politically correct isn't the point. It's being "socially accepted by all," so everyone buys products.

no religious shops, thats exactly why the jewish shop in classic is removed

Make a Hanukkah shop

Hanukkah is also known as the feast of light and goes on for 8 day dec.8-16
Maybe for the shop add one item a day and that item is only avalible for that day only.

That's really awesome and such but,
No

Just make a ton of holiday stuff for each holiday and make roome, hannukah items like mannorah item or furniture and a dreidl toy.

Then they would have to look up every religion that exists and find special items from that religion, keep it at santa
